It is proposed that yangming (阳明) turbid heat and dysfunction of the chong and ren (冲任) vessels are the key pathogenesis underlying abnormal uterine bleeding caused by polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The general principle of treatment is to clear and drain the yangming channel and resolve turbid heat. During the acute bleeding phase, the approach is to clear heat, cool the blood, consolidate the chong vessel, and stop bleeding. During the chronic phase, the focus shifts to resolving phlegm and removing stasis, unblocking and purging qi movement. And during the late stage, the method of boosting qi and nourishing yin, consolidating the root and regulating menstruation is suggested. In clinical practice, the self-formulated Yishen Quzhuo Formula (益肾祛浊方) serves as the foundation, with flexible modifications and adjustments made according to disease stage and individual clinical presentation.

Ileocecal duplication is a rare congenital gastrointestinal abnormality,with lesions predominantly localized near the ileocecal valve and manifesting as cystic structures.Clinically,it presents with diverse symptoms,including abdominal pain,vomiting,abdominal mass,etc.However,symptoms such as intussusception and appendicitis are easily confused with it.Furthermore,the imaging features of ileocecal duplication are nonspecific,which further increases the risk of misdiagnosis.Treatment options include laparoscopic surgery and laparotomy.Notably,laparoscopic surgery is highly feasible,especially for infants and young children,and achieves a prognosis comparable to that of laparotomy.In the case report presented in this study,a 1-year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital due to abdominal pain.Definitive diagnosis could not be established through comprehensive imaging examinations,and the diagnosis of ileocecal duplication cyst was ultimately confirmed surgically.Additionally,the diagnosis,imaging features,treatment,and prognosis of ileocecal duplication are systematically collated and summarized.

Objective:To investigate the value of T helper 17 cells(Th17)/regulatory T cells(Treg)imbalance in the evaluation of intravenous immunoglobulin(IVIG)resistance in children with Kawasaki disease and Kobayashi score≤4.Methods:A total of 78 children with Kawasaki disease and Kobayashi score ≤ 4 admitted to Hunan Children's Hospital from January 2020 to December 2023 were prospectively selected as the study subjects,all of whom received IVIG treatment.In the acute phase,the proportion of Th17 cells and Treg cells was detected.Children were divided into IVIG sensitive group and IVIG resistance group based on their responsiveness to IVIG treatment.Baseline data of children with different IVIG treatment responsiveness,acute Th17 cell inflammatory factors [interleukin(IL)-17,IL-21,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)],Treg cell inflammatory factors [IL-10,IL-35,transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)] levels,and Th17/Treg values were compared.The correlation between Th17/Treg values and IVIG resistance in children with Kawasaki disease was analyzed using a restricted cubic spline model(RCS).According to the threshold of correlation between Th17/Treg values obtained from RCS analysis and drug resistance in children,Th17/Treg was grouped,with a focus on analyzing the predictive value and clinical benefits of Th17/Treg values for IVIG resistance in children with Kawasaki disease.Results:Among the 78 children with Kawasaki disease,16 were resistant to IVIG treatment,accounting for 20.51%.The levels of C-reactive protein(CRP),IL-17,and Th17/Treg in the acute phase of children in the IVIG resistance group were higher than those in the IVIG sensitive group,while the levels of IL-10 were lower than those in the IVIG sensitive group( P<0.05).RCS analysis showed that there was a non-linear dose-response relationship between IVIG resistance and acute Th17/Treg values in children with Kawasaki disease( P<0.05).When the acute Th17/Treg value was greater than 1.05,the risk of IVIG resistance in children with Kawasaki disease increased with the increase in indicator levels.The levels of CRP and IL-17 in the acute phase of children with Th17/Treg>1.05 were higher than those in the Th17/Treg < 1.05 group,while IL-10 levels were lower than those in the Th17/Treg<1.05 group.The proportion of children resistant to IVIG treatment was higher than that in the Th17/Treg<1.05 group( P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that CRP,IL-17,IL-10,and Th17/Treg were the influencing factors of IVIG resistance in children with Kawasaki disease( P<0.05).It was found through a nomogram that the C-index of the acute phase Th17/Treg values and their secretion of inflammatory factors in children with Kawasaki disease and Kobayashi score ≤ 4,as well as other major indicators,predicted the risk of IVIG resistance.The C-index was 0.975(95% CI 0.944-1.000),indicating good discrimination.When drawing the decision curve,it was found that compared to using each indicator separately,the Th17/Treg value and its secreted inflammatory factors in the acute phase assisted other major indicators in drawing the decision curve with a higher net benefit rate,with a maximum net benefit rate of 0.205. Conclusion:IVIG resistance in children with Kawasaki disease and Kobayashi score≤4 is related to Th17/Treg imbalance.When the Th17/Treg value in the acute phase of the disease is greater than 1.05,the risk of IVIG resistance is higher.The inflammatory factors IL-17 and IL-10 secreted by the two can assist other known indicators related to IVIG resistance in Kawasaki disease patients,improving the accuracy of predicting resistance risk.

Chinese Journal of Geriatric Heart Brain and Vessel Diseases 2025;27(3):332-336
Objective To compare the effects of microvascular decompression(MVD)and percuta-neous balloon compression(PBC)on inflammatory factors,neurotransmitters,oxidative stress and prognosis in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia(TN).Methods A total of 130 elderly TN patients admitted in Department of Neurosurgery of Baoding First Hospital from June 2021 to June 2023 were enrolled,and according to surgical approaches,they were divided into MVD group(64 patients)and PBC group(66 patients).The following indicators were compared between the two groups,including immediate postoperative clinical efficacy,operation time,length of hospital stay,incidence of complications,recurrence rate 1 year after surgery,serum inflammatory factors(Il-1β,IL-6,TNF-α),oxidative stress indicators(MAD,SOD,GSH-Px),and serum neurotrans-mitter[calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP),substance P,5-HT].Results There was no sig-nificant difference in remission rate between the MVD group and PBC group(98.4%vs 97.0%,P>0.05).But the MVD group had obviously longer operation time and length of hospital stay,and lower incidence of complications than the PBC group(P<0.01).Serum levels of IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α and MAD in the MVD group at 6 h after operation were significantly higher while SOD and GSH-Px levels were significantly lower than those in the PBC group(P<0.01).Compared with the levels before surgery,both groups had significantly increased serum levels of IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α and MAD but reduced SOD,GSH-Px,CGRP and substance P levels at 6 h after surgery,declined IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α levels at 3 d after surgery,and elevated serum 5-HT level but de-creased CGRP and substance P levels at 1 month after surgery(P<0.05).No statistical difference was seen in pain recurrence rate between the two groups at 1 year after surgery(X2=1.781,P=0.182).Conclusion Both MVD and PBC are effective treatments for senile trigeminal neuralgia,and can regulate the inflammatory factor and neurotransmitter levels.MVD has the advantage of lower incidence of postoperative complications,while PBC is superior in less trauma,shorter oper-ation time and hospital stay.
